I've seen that SLR in there a couple of times before (if I'm right in thinking that that is the multistorey in Wilmslow sort of opposite the Aston dealer?).

Funnily enough I drive into there today and only the bottom floor was open.

The SLR was located on floor two, I was walking up the stairs, and took a look through the window on the door. I noticed a very long looking Mercedes in the Distance, I thought it was just an SLK, but as I got closer I realised that it was much more exciting than that.

Noble on Water St in Wilmslow around 7pm tonight. Nice change from the rows of Porsches parked up.

Ive never seen a grey one, they are always red with the odd one in yellow or black.

That reminds me, I saw a white one in full Repsol racing livery last week in Meols.

One used to live by the Anglican Cathedral in Liverpool, Integrale that is.
I'll drive past the spot in a bit and see if it is still there smile
Last time I seen it I was doing a ghost tour so couldn't really stop and take pictures of it tongue out

M55 - About 15 minutes ago. The vehicle was heading west, unfortunately I was in the opposite direction so only got a few seconds glimpse.

Soooo...to the vehicle.

Think concept vehicle. It was longer and lower than a Range Rover. It looked like exposed wheels although the body went over the wheels. It was mainly grey paintwork, with touches of orange. It was very sleek with a heavily raked windscreen that formed part of the roof.

I only saw it for a few seconds, but if I were to have a guess at manufacture, I'd say Volvo. But equally, it could have been a film set vehicle.

I'll submit a crappy MS Paint drawing later on.

ETA - It looked a little like this but more modern and better finish...



And as this a Peter Wheeler creation...could well be it!

ETA further - found it!

Wheeler's Scamander concept?

The car world is a much duller place without Peter Wheeler and his mad creations!

Quite shocked that an SLR hasn't got a private plate on it.

Each to their own. I've got a PP but it's not on a car at the moment, and i know some folks don't like them.

But if you're going to spend that sort of cash on a car, you'd think it'd have something quite expensive between the rear lights!

Unless it's a footballer who i believe don't tend to go for private plates because a) they change cars so often, and b) doesnt identify them particularly.

depends what you spend your cash on though, if you've spent all you have to get the car, maybe a PP would push you over budget?

I doubt I'd buy a private plate no matter what I drove!

Wonder, with it re-surfacing (so to speak), as to whether someone's thinking of going into production with this?
